H3NRY Posted March 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Yeah, sorry mike I've got rid of your hard work. The lacquer situation was getting bad though and i don't like dark wheels on dark cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H3NRY Posted March 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Looks really smart! Thanks, I like it too. Just a shame I didn't get organised, buy my coils before the holidays, then I could have had them fitted by now. Doesn't look like they'll be happening until may.

H3NRY Posted June 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Not been on here for ages! Been building bikes instead.Car hasn't changed - only the milage has. What with work and uni it's been a bit of a workhorse. It decided to spew out all of it's PAS fluid the other day, which was nice. Thats now sorted, much to my bank balances disappointment. Only took five hours of wiggling a pipe through the engine bay.Brake discs and pads have been ordered, and is getting new brake shoes too, along with a fluid change.As ever - I want to buy coilovers.
